At first, I was sceptical. I had tried one place just up the street around World Sq, and I can hear speakers blaring out late into the night-that was a one private room too, not the dorm style. Still, as I look around in this website, I found this place through sorting out guest exp vs. price. Mind you, I don't want to stay in upscale hotels as I don't have farms full of gold egg-laying ducks but I'm not interested in staying in a room worse than their cages. To top it all off, I had to be in Sydney for a competition, so being fresh for the day everyday is kind of a must. So, let's start.
When I come at night, I was a bit surprised about seeing the place (with a pool and all). Even though it looks more like a kiddy pool, but hey, I don't see much places having that at all ! The overall ambience is what you can expect from a backpacker place-but minus the blaring speakers as it's away from any nearby clubs-which are good if you want to get a good sleep. The kitchen looks clean and maintained more than most places I've been to. The wifi-and later, the lock-was not expected, but the reasonable price was worth it. What made me realize why this place had good ratings and reviews-was the bed itself and the room. I was afraid of bed bugs-which can be prevalent in most places-but I was glad this place was well maintained. The check-out was easy, and I don't need to deposit any money in advance. Less to say, this place was definitely well worth the price.

Close to conference facilities, food, shopping and transport. Had some trouble communicating with hotel staff due to language difficulties but they were all pleasant enough. Room comfortable and suited our needs. A reasonable mid priced hotel in the city centre.
